Give Me a Lifetime
Anthem Lights Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And now she's the only thing on my mind
Now I may be out of line
Is there any way that I can make her mine
Give me a lifetime
That's all that I'm asking for
Give me a lifetime
Not a second less, not a moment more
Want to give you the world
But I don't have it yet
So darling, here's my heart
Now I may run out of time
But I would gladly spend my life just to try
Give me a lifetime
That's all that I'm asking for
Give me a lifetime
Not a second less, but not a moment more
Baby, we will both find
Everything that we're looking for
Give me a lifetime
Not a second less, not a moment more
I want nothing more dear God
Just saw an angel with my own eyes

The chorus repeats the plea for a lifetime with this person, nothing more and nothing less. The bridge expresses hope that both of them will find everything they're looking for together. The song ends the same way it began, with a passionate plea for this person to be in the singer's life.

Once I find her, this is the song I'm going to play. Now matter how long it takes, this will always be the song. It's one that will last a lifetime.

Expecting our baby in just two weeks from today, listening to this song before bed just reminds me how lucky I am to have the husband that I do 💕
This is our song... One of the first we used to express truly how we felt for one another. It's honestly so beautiful. I love him so much.

You guys have the most beautiful voices. I don’t know why you’re not on the radio (that I’ve heard). Your music is so much better than what I normally hear.
@generalwolf35gaming
I relate to this song so much.
I know I’m still pretty young (20) and there’s plenty of time, but I’ve never been in a relationship cuz they fall apart before they even have a chance to grow.
I’ve seen an angel, but I’m a little hesitant to try cuz I don’t know where and how to start.
All I’m praying for is a lifetime with an angel, the one I’ve been waiting for.
@MaggieGraceWebb
Someday, I'm gonna give some guy a lifetime. Until then, I'll hide my love away.
